Therapy style

I have a passion for helping clients become more aware of what is keeping them "stuck" and working collaboratively towards attainable goals. My clients describe me as direct, compassionate, helpful, and understanding. I have extensive experience working with anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. I believe that therapy should be used as a tool and be just as helpful outside of the sessions. I utilize processing, skill-building, and psychoeducation during sessions and love seeing the growth within each client.
